My apologies but due to a fault with the forum server the database crapped itself and flood was lost.

The forum server has been repaired but unfortunately all posts and forum validations made in the 9 hours from the posting of this message have been lost.

A game server rollback is more annoying in the most cases, i think.

Thank for fixing it.

It's a conspiracy. Someone tried to assassinate Flood.

Dibs on not being Flood's bodyguard. I ain't taking any beer-induced database crashes for it.

Great work on getting it all back up so fast, guys. We owe plenty of +0s to you.

Retired, permanently.

' Wrote:okay, i'm actually kind of flippin ticked off, i understand you could not help it but i just spent two hour flippin writing my new characters rp and now it's gone, i can't even remember what it was all about

*cries uncontrollably*

is there any way at all to recover the thread? or is it lost forever and I'll have to re-type it?

I reckon a re-write is order, who knows it may even be better than the one you wrote initially.

A good thing to do when writing your RP (or indeed any long post) is to write it up in notepad, then copy/paste it on to the forums, that way, if for whatever reason something does go wrong, you can have another stab at it later without having to re-write it all from memory. ;)

Heh yeah. Writing in notepad is a really good idea.

Other than that, all give cannon and the admin team another kiss. Seriously. Where would we be without them?

Heh, good DR planning it seems, the loss of data was minimal. An administration team that knows what it's doing. I am genuinely impressed.

Wide awake in a world that sleeps, enduring thoughts, enduring scenes. The knowledge of what is yet to come.
From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.
